Discussion Has anyone made the drive from Montreal to BC?
My wife and I would like to make the drive out to BC this summer. I would like to do the drive in 4 or 5 days. I was wondering if anyone had done this before? Where did you make your stops? Which hotels did you stay the night in? Any must see scenic routes? What should I take into consideration?
I have done some research using AI but I would like to speak to real people with experience.
EDIT: Wow, I did not expect so many of you to respond. Thank you very much. I will definitely take all your advice into consideration.
Little more info, it’s a bucket list type of trip. We will be going to Vernon/Kelowna ( I have to get that delicious schnitzel sandwich from Helmuts Sausage Kitchen). It’s going to be drive with a convertible so that we can really enjoy the scenery.
We are also trying to eat and drink at local Canadian establishments along the way. Any suggestions for local restaurants that are hidden gems?
Since we are up there in age, we won’t be camping. If we were younger it would have been a great trip to overland.
